this actually put me in mind of a phrase formed by a very imminent american historian, lawrence levine, in which he talked about the unpredictable past. it's a great phrase. the unpredictable past. i found that the past of the amistad was extremely unpredictable, and so what aid like to share with you today are some of those surprises. what were the surprises of doing this kind of research? the first surprise -- and in some ways the biggest surprise and the one that made many subsequent surprises possible -- has to do with the sources. the quantity and the quality of evidence about these africans who made the revolt. now, i had spent 30 years studying sailors enslaved africans, pirates, poor people who left almost no documents of their own. so i was trained to do this kind of work. to try to write history from below. people who had been really left out of most of the historical narratives. but i must tell you that the body of evidence available about this case, i'm convinced, is the richest and the deepest of any i have ever seen about any group of enslaved rebels anywhere. it is a sta

and so the reason why you have 20 levin is because that is the latest information we have. we do not have enough information for me to be able to tell you how much of this is funding the relief and how much of this is an economic recovery. >> i think it is both. i am just hoping it was not an accounting gimmick. understandably, i certainly understand that companies need some relief because they do not have the cash flow to make pension operations. that is something we need to look at. the other thing -- multi employer plans versus single employer plans, there is a difference in the premium. i know the financial status is strained -- i was reading in your testimony, it is $9 with a single employer plan and $42 with a multi employer plan. it looks like very soon -- at least last year we paid out more in the multi employer plans and we took in in premiums. we obviously cannot continue to do that. by 2020, or eight to 10 years from now -- you estimate will be paying out $500 million in plants. the last question -- how you propose to change that since the premiums only bring in
